Fedora's developer-focused “Workstation” release
Hi everyone; the Fedora 21 announcement went by here this morning, and possibly because of infrastructure overload and server errors (nice, I know), there wasn't much commentary. So, I thought I'd ask about a particular thing. Our new Workstation flavor is aiming to be the ideal developer's desktop. Is it interesting to you? If not, why not? What _would_ make it interesting?

The announcement URL is http://fedoramagazine.org/announcing-fedora-21/, in case you missed it.
And you can read more about the workstation sub-project's ambitions at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Workstation/Workstation_PRD
Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts!

This is interesting to me.
What would make it more interesting:
(1) I'd like to be able to run native android apps on fedora. [^]
(2) I wish Fedora would move to a rolling release. Right now I have a daily cron job that runs 'yum -y --exclude=kernel\* update' because the newest kernel won't boot on my system. That makes it scary to use fedup. A rolling release would solve this problem for me and modernize a very old process that turns off non technical users.
